Young, hip and can’t afford a pad in Shoreditch? Its neighbour is close to the action and definately worth a look

So where is Haggerston again? This is normally the response from a non-East
Ender. The new East London line (which links West Croydon to Dalston) may be
set to revive Haggerston’s fortunes, but for the moment it isn’t a name that
estate agents like to use. They prefer Shoreditch, Bethnal Green, Dalston or
London Fields, which have “cooler” connotations. But the increasing
popularity of this East End neighbourhood could change all that.

Where is it?

Anything from Whiston Road (which borders Haggerston Park) up to Middleton
Road in the north. Kingsland Road is the cut-off point to the west.
